cruise
Europe ’ s second-longest river is a feast for all the senses , especially when sailed . Whether it ’ s musical Vienna , where even the horses at the Spanish Riding School perform dressage movements to classical tunes , pretty Austrian winemaking towns serving fruity Grüner Veltliner , or Budapest where delectable dishes are spiced with fiery red paprika — there ’ s something new to experience in every stop along the way .
Setting off from Passau in southern Germany and ending in Budapest , the Danube Dreams ( Eastbound ) cruise is a fascinating voyage of discovery which sails through four countries and takes in three very different capital cities . In between sailing and soaking up the history and atmosphere of culture-rich towns and villages , guests can also hike through beautiful countryside and visit atmospheric bars and restaurants to try local specialties . Here ’ s our guide to some of the many highlights and things to do on this Avalon Waterways itinerary .
